Frequently asked questions

Connect the USB-output of the turntable to a free USB-socket on your computer and turn it on.

Place the counterweight halfway along the counterweight support rod at the rear of the arm. Remove the felt matt. With the power off, and the platter static, place the stylus pressure gauge onto the platter. To set the recommended 17,5mN downforce (1mN = 0,1g / 0,1 Pond), place the tip of the stylus exactly in-between the two points marked 15mN and 20mN. If the stylus gauge becomes level, then the correct pressure has been achieved. However if the there is insufficient or excessive pressure the gauge will either not move or tilt down. To adjust the amount of pressure, carefully move the counterweight along the support rod, until the stylus pressure is sufficient to raise the pressure gauge to the level position. Moving the counterweight towards the cartridge will reduce pressure and away will increase pressure. Finally secure the counterweight using hexagonal key provided.

Hang the loop of the thread of the anti-skating weight in the groove of the anti-skating stub corresponding to the downforce applied to your cartridge and feed the thread through the loop of the wire support.
